Mickey Birthday Banner

Our daughter's 2nd birthday is coming up and we chose to do a Mickey Mouse theme since that is her favorite character. I used my Silhouette Cameo with the Silhouette Design Studio to design the black Mickey heads. I used Cricut Craftroom with my Cricut machine to cut out the letters. 

Mickey Birthday

Our daughter's favorite character is Mickey Mouse, so for her second birthday we are throwing her a Mickey party. This is her invitation that I made for the party. I used Mickey Mouse and Friends cartridge with my Cricut and Cricut Craftroom to cut out Mickey.

Will you be my Valentine?

I chose to do a Valentine's card since it is only a little over a month away. I used a heart for the triple time stamping technique. The card is in various pinks and red.

Birthday Fun

My Mom turns 65 this month so I thought I would make her a birthday card. I decided to do some word play while making her card. I used my Cricut with the Cricut Craft Room for the lettering and sentiment inside the card. I used my Stampin Up owl punch and bird punch for the embellishments on the front.

Happy New Year!

It's the start of another year. My goal is to make a card for each day that I am at home. On the days we are gone on vacation I am not going to stress about. I originally wanted to do a card a day, but I know it's not completely possible when we are a busy family. I will do my best to do as many as I can. I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out the greeting for this card. The greeting comes from Miss Kate Cuttables.

Rolled paper Christmas tree

I saw a rolled paper Christmas tree on a card and wanted to try it out. This is where I got the idea from: http://craftspotbykimberly.blogspot.com/2011/11/rolled-paper-christmas-tree-gift-bag.html

I cut each piece of paper 1 1/2 inches wide. I started out cutting the length at 4 inches and went down a quarter of an inch each time until I had nothing to roll. I think it would have been a bit easier if I had used thinner paper, but these worked out none the less. I used my Creative Memories star punch. I used my Stampin Up hexagon punch and cut it in half for the base of the tree.

Happy Veteran's Day

Thanks to all the men and women who have served in the military!
